Generalist bird exhibits site‐dependent resource selection [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Quantifying resource selection (an organism's disproportionate use of available resources) is essential to infer habitat requirements of a species, develop management recommendations, predict species responses to changing conditions, and improve our ...

Spatial roost networks and resource selection of female wild turkeys [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science
Wildlife demography is influenced by behavioural decisions, with sleep being a crucial avian behaviour. Avian species use roost sites to minimize thermoregulation costs, predation risk and enhance foraging efficiency.

Crop use structures resource selection strategies for African elephants in a human‐dominated landscape [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution
To conserve wide‐ranging species in degraded landscapes, it is essential to understand how the behavior of animals changes in relation to the degree and composition of modification.

A Novel Framework to Predict Relative Habitat Selection in Aquatic Systems: Applying Machine Learning and Resource Selection Functions to Acoustic Telemetry Data From Multiple Shark Species

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Resource selection functions (RSFs) have been widely applied to animal tracking data to examine relative habitat selection and to help guide management and conservation strategies.

Individual Variation in Temporal Dynamics of Post-release Habitat Selection

Frontiers in Conservation Science, 2021
Translocated animals undergo a phase of behavioral adjustment after being released in a novel environment, initially prioritizing exploration and gradually shifting toward resource exploitation.

The Bighorn Habitat Assessment Tool: A Method to Quantify Conservation Value on Landscapes Impacted by Mining

Land, 2022
We present a methodology to assess the conservation value of mitigation lands for desert bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis nelsoni) within landscapes impacted by historic and ongoing industrial uses.

The Role of Wolves in Regulating a Chronic Non-communicable Disease, Osteoarthritis, in Prey Populations

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
It is widely accepted that predators disproportionately prey on individuals that are old, weak, diseased or injured. By selectively removing individuals with diseases, predators may play an important role in regulating the overall health of prey ...

Recursive use of home ranges and seasonal shifts in foraging behavior by a generalist carnivore

Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Coyotes (Canis latrans) colonized the southeastern United States over the last century as large predators, including the red wolf (Canis rufus) and eastern cougar (Puma concolor), were extirpated from the region.

Effects of human and nonhuman predation risk on antipredator movement behaviors of an upland game bird

Ecosphere, 2023
Predators elicit antipredator behaviors such as proactive and reactive movements in prey, but both are rarely investigated simultaneously. Impacts of human predation risk on antipredator behaviors can be greater than those of nonhuman predators ...
